First Ford I have owned and so far I am pretty impressed overall.

First things first.

Nice truck man i like the smooth step covers.

i wouldnt replace your stock pulley unless youve done some extensive work under the hood. such as intake, 65mm throttle body, new mass airflow sensor, maybe a Hypertech thermostat and a few other bolt on's. but If you do replace it tho id go with a Johnny Lightning pulley and get the Diablo Predator sport tuner so you can get it running right.

Why not?

Welcome to the board, nice truck!

 

i dunno its hard on the engine if everythings stock right?

thats the first thing i went to replace on mine and was advised otherwise by a few local lightning owners. buddy of mine just threw on a 5LB pulley and its running like garbage.

 

Unfortunately most of that is incorrect. The factory intake flows well enough for a 4 lb. pulley, although most replace it anyway. He does not need to replace his throttle body, a/f sensor or thermostat to run the pulley either. The most important thing is to get a good tune, preferably on a dyno. I know with my 4 lb. pulley I had to add a MAFia since my MAF was close to "max"ing out.

Thanks Guys. I am making a PS Sig and I am looking everywhere on hwo to add it. Some help maybe?

Thanks BTW I am looking into the pulley a little more thorough before I just slap it on.

 

stock trucks are fine for a 4 pound pulley with proper tuning. I would replace the stock filter with a K&N, then add a 4 pounder and tune it properly on a dyno. The mail order tunes are too risky.

With good weather, you should have a 12 second truck.

 

How much you talkin just with that? Also if anyone can still help with the sig let me know. Does it size it down auto?

Peace

 

My Sig

 

damn nice sig i need one 2

i guess you dont really need all those upgrades but at least throw on a new Intake and better exaust if you already havnt so you dont break anything lol. Guess that depends on how you drive tho

 

Welcome,

Nice color choice too!

IMHO do some research here on the boards, there is a ton of information available, just search first and if you've been talking to some of the local guys in your area their experiences may help guide you. Find a good tuner locally or maybe a short drive away.

Any Advice is cool. Im am currently building a studio so my funds expecially after the lightning are limited. I just wanna know what kind of cheap upgrades are good at first.
